<u>Explanation:</u>

Fault-block mountains are formed by the movement of large crustal blocks when forces in the Earth's crust pull it apart. Some parts of the Earth are pushed upward and others collapse down.

Fault blocks are very large blocks of rock, sometimes hundreds of kilometers in extent, created by tectonic and localized stresses in the Earth's crust. Large areas of bedrock are broken up into blocks by faults.

The process is simple when forces in the Earth's crust pull it apart.

I hope you get the idea thanks.

Fittoniya [83]
You would definitely not expect political stability in a state that is being annexed or which does not have a territory - rather the opposite would be true.

Both multinational and souvereign states can have a high lever of political security. However, in a multinational state one can also expect some conflicts between the different ethnic groups - therefore the best answer is "a sovereign state"
